Admitting secret development of a variant that is designed to be highly infectious variant that is likely to bypass the vaccines is likely to result in felony charges in the US:
Whoever knowingly possesses any biological agent, toxin, or delivery system of a type or in a quantity that, under the circumstances, is not reasonably justified by a prophylactic, protective, bona fide research, or other peaceful purpose, shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 10 years, or both.
If Omicron effectively ends the pandemic, should the government adopt a strategy of manufacturing and releasing less-dangerous variants to save lives in future pandemics?
If years from now a researcher comes forward and says that he produced and released Omicron to save millions of lives, should he face prosecution?
If Omicron is really a mild as it appears, millions of lives could have been saved if it could have been produced and released in 2020. No lockdowns or vaccines are required.
So the doctor that introduced the omnicron variant to the world, in her same breath said it wasn’t a threat. Isn’t it bizarre that our government only heard the first half of her sentence.
Yes, unless you force be people to get vaccinated.
Releasing a benign virus to act to produce immunity is the same thing from what I can see. A virus has the added benefit of immediately displacing more-dangerous variants. That is what is happening in South Africa.
Yes, the government-enforced mandates are the vector for the mRNA infection. They are sort of like ticks for Lyme disease, which cannot be transmitted between humans.
Putin recently compared the Omicron variant to a “live vaccine”.
Should Russia face sanctions if there is evidence that Omicron came from a Russian lab?
Or would that mean that Putin and Russian scientists should get a Nobel prize for saving millions of lives?
